Pakistani official sources acknowledged that India
had expressed its dissatisfaction at the investigation into
the Mumbai attacks and the slow pace of the trial of seven
suspects, including Lashker-e-Taiba commander Zakiur Rehman
Lakhvi, arrested by the Federal Investigation Agency.
The Indian side also informed the Pakistanis that
except for Lakhvi and LeT communications expert Zarar Shah,
the other five men arrested by the FIA were minor players in
the Mumbai carnage, the sources said.
One of the seven suspects currently on trial in
Pakistan – Mazhar Iqbal – uses the alias Abu al-Qama but the
Abu Al-Qama named in the new list of six individuals is
believed to be a different person who acted as a handler.
Sajid Mir, a former army official and LeT’s head of
international operations, was David Headley’s handler.
Mir is wanted by authorities in the US and Australia.
Major Abdur Rehman Hashim Syed alias Pasha retired
from the army in 2007.
He too was in touch with Headley.
Abdur Rehman was detained by the Pakistan Army in
September 2009 but released later.
Abu Qafa, Abu Al-Qama and Abu Hamza are considered
to be aliases of persons who controlled and handled the Mumbai
attackers, the sources said. PTI
